May 13, 2018

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (PC): We set up Trial accounts on FFXIV (since we can't play to 35 on existing accounts--get with the times, SE!) and played for a bit.  I made Azureus Allegretto and Tarina went with Trisse, and we went with Archer and Conjurer, respectively.  I think we made it to about L15 each.

Unfortunately, it's just an archaic-feeling MMO in terms of gameplay and UI (objectively--whether you like it or not is where the opinion part comes in), even for the time it released.  I could go on for a while, but eh.

It is fun enough, as is any decent MMO!

And not being able to party in Trial is absurd.  I know they want you to buy the full game, but the best way to hook people is to get them into the community.  The Trial does not allow that.

Even so, we may or may not reup our main accounts in the near future--ditto for picking up the expansions.  And we might not--we both want Pillars of Eternity 2, and Battle for Azeroth is a must in a couple of months.

Minor Entries: Sword of Chaos (iOS).
